Golf Club Arlberg
About this course
Golf Club Arlberg sits in the high-altitude resort village of Lech am Arlberg in western Austria's Vorarlberg region, where the landscape is defined by dramatic Alpine peaks and meadows that transition between summer pasture and winter ski terrain. The course occupies terrain at approximately 1,400 meters elevation, making it one of the higher-altitude layouts in the Alps. The setting places golf within the context of a traditional mountain village known primarily for winter sports, and the course operates seasonally from late spring through early autumn when snow conditions permit. The routing works with the natural slope and contour of Alpine meadowland, where elevation changes and the pitch of the terrain create playing angles uncommon on lowland courses. Holes move through open grazing areas with views toward the surrounding Arlberg massif, and the thin air at this altitude affects ball flight in ways that require adjustment from players accustomed to sea-level conditions. The layout reflects the constraints and opportunities of mountain golf, where available land, weather windows, and topography shape design decisions more directly than on conventional sites. The club serves both resort visitors and a local membership drawn from the Lech-Zürs ski community, and the facility integrates with the broader hospitality infrastructure of the Arlberg region. The course offers a distinctive Alpine golf experience characterized by its elevation, scenery, and the seasonal rhythm of a high-mountain environment where golf occupies the landscape between ski seasons.

Getting there
Golf Club Arlberg is reached via Innsbruck Airport, roughly an hour and a half west through the dramatic Inn Valley and over the Arlberg Pass, though Zurich and Friedrichshafen serve as alternative gateways for those approaching from Switzerland or southern Germany. The drive climbs steadily through alpine meadows and forested switchbacks before descending into the pristine Lech Valley, where traditional chalets cling to steep slopes and the air grows noticeably thinner. For those accustomed to private aviation, the helipad at Lech itself offers a direct, breathtaking arrival above the peaks. The final approach into the village reveals a world apart - an enclave of quiet luxury where the golf club sits tucked into the high-altitude landscape, as discreet and refined as the resort town that surrounds it.
